The Elite Apple Corps

They felt a sense of security that despite the fact that they lived in their mother's basement, and couldn't get a girlfriend, at least they had a re-assuringly expensive Jobs' Mob approved bit of gear and that made them " special" just like their mum assured them they were really. The Post visited an Apple Store and discovered that the feeling that you were somehow 'thought different' because you bought Apple gear has faded. There is still an element of the gross fantasy of the Apple fanboy out there, but it is being swamped by people who just buy a product and chuck it when it is no longer fashionable. There are even people who dare to complain when their Apple product does not work.
